How Senia’s approaches work online
Senia often draws on attachment-based and client-centred ways of working. Attachment-based therapy looks at how early relationships shape how people relate now and can help with intimacy, trust and communication issues. Client-centred therapy focuses on being listened to and understood, with the therapist following the client’s pace and priorities to build self-awareness and self-trust.She also uses mindfulness and somatic ideas to help people notice how emotions show up in the body and learn gentle ways to regulate strong feelings. These methods can support recovery from trauma, reduce overwhelm and improve sleep and stress management.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then adapt methods together in a collaborative way. Clients shape the pace and focus of each session so therapy fits their needs.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls enable face-to-face connection for building rapport and reading non-verbal cues, phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is low, and live chat or text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while maintaining continuity of care.
